Wigan boss hit with fine

Wigan manager Roberto Martinez has been fined by the Football Association and warned as to his future conduct after being found guilty of improper conduct following comments made after the match against Manchester City last season.

Martinez had been furious at referee Stuart Attwell for the second half dismissal of defender Gary Caldwell for a tackle on Carlos Tevez during the Latics' 3-0 defeat at Eastlands on March 29.

At a personal hearing on Tuesday the charge was proven and, taking into account Martinez's previous exemplary record, the Independent Regulatory Commission warned him as to his future conduct and fined him £2,250.
